[Alberta's Child]

There's a bigger question that nobody seems to be asking:

What exactly is the upside for an illegal alien if he/she is given amnesty?

Think about it ... If given a choice between "living in the shadows" and becoming a taxpayer with all that includes (Obamacare mandates, IRS scrutiny, etc.), then why would an illegal alien opt for the latter?

I think the most comical part of this is that most illegal aliens would simply say: "No, thanks!" and continue living the way they are.

Welfare, Section 8 housing, food stamps, EITC... A plethora of bennies for the newly minted citizen lawbreaking scum.
